I fly around trees quite a bit while doing photos for homes for sale. Any recommendation on prop guards? DJI has their own version, but I also see PGYTECH sells them, and they look a bit more rugged. Thanks

DJI makes a prop cage for the Mavic Pro. I think there would be less of a chance that something like that would get caught in a tree, but it still has a lot of little openings that small branches could enter.@Thunderdrones mentioned a prop cage when I asked the same question. He’s also making something that may help to be announced soon.

In this post Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 – repeated success! (Model T819) I am demonstrating the fact that I was using Litchi on a Samsung S2 tablet, which requires a somewhat tricky boot procedure to work with DJI drones. You see how the M2P camera follows my Goggles RE. SInce I was flying about a meter from my eyes, I used Pgytech prop guards not to protect the propellers but my eyes.
Before reading this thread, it didn't occur to me that the prop guards might increase the chance of the drone getting caught in a tree. That might influence the decision to use the prop guards or not.
There are many posts here where people have hit an obstacle like a tree and their props stop, causing the drone to fall down, often into water. If you hit a tree with a prop guard or cage, your props and flight won’t stop. Which is better?
